Ghana sealed qualification to the semi finals of the All Africa Games with a fiercely contested 4-3 win over Mozambique on Saturday.
The Black Meteors looked home-and-dry after an impressive first half hat-trick by Hearts of Oak striker Mahatma Otoo.
However, the tournament hosts came back strongly in the second period to draw parity before a vociferous home crowd in Maxaquene.
Gilbert Fiamenyo restored Ghana�s lead in the 53rd minute against the run of play at a point where the team was really under the cosh.
The unexpected strike by the burly Heart of Lions hitman eventually proved to be the match-winner as the team held on to secure qualification as Group A runners-up.
Ghana�s next opponent in the knock-out stage on Tuesday will be determined after the final round of matches in Group B where Cameroon, Senegal and Uganda all stand the chance of qualification as group winners.
